The Story of Us

A best friend is a special gift.  It is the strongest possible kind of friendship.

I am proud that Clementine Ishtari is my best friend.  She understands me.  She listens to me.  She’s always there for me.  She doesn’t sugarcoat anything or bullshit me.  She tells me how it is.  And I am grateful to have her through thick and thin.

The story of us is complicated.  We have hurt each other, but we have also forgiven.  We have laughed, and we have cried.  We have been through a lot, but we’re still in it together.

The last picture we took together was over two years ago, so we were really overdue for a new pic.  Btw, isn’t she cute???

Thank you for being my bestie, Clem.  ILY! <3

52 Weeks of Color: #15 Red

I’m a bit late in posting this red look, but I did not want to skip a week if I could help it.  So I’m playing a bit of catch-up.  Not too much to say about this look, but this red jacket is one of my favorites in SL.  And you definitely need to demo this new Sweetheart skin from Curio.  It’s totally adorable.

52 Weeks of Color: #10 Sienna

So, basically, this pic is me in RL today.  I’m home sick from work feeling like crap, and I have pretty much been useless all day just lounging around in my warm pajamas.  Being sick totally sucks, especially when there is so much to be done at work.  Oh well.  The work will still be there waiting for me when I’m better.  Anyway, I figured I might as well knock out the color challenge for this week since I had not gotten to it yet.  Please pardon my appearance… I’m sickly.

52 Weeks of Color: #8 Green

I’ve had this green outfit more or less done since before Christmas, but I’ve been so busy with the holidays and traveling and work craziness that I haven’t had a chance to take any pictures until today.  Anyway, I wanted to use a good mix of greens since “green” is pretty vague and all encompassing, so here you go.  I’m a little apprehensive about silver, but I guess I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it.  First things first… here’s green…

52 Weeks of Color: #7 Cerise

I wasn’t too thrilled about cerise this week.  For some reason, I thought it would be much easier than it was.  But in reality, I didn’t have as much cerise, or even pink, in my inventory as I thought.  Sadness.  I have been determined to use as much of my inventory as I can without buying too much (because my inventory is way, way, way too packed with unworn purchases and review copies), so I dug around in it and made do with what I could find.  Oh, and I threw in some pinkish decor, too, because I felt like it.  Not quite cerise, but a suitable backdrop for this look, nonetheless.

52 Weeks of Color: #3 Goldenrod

I’ll be honest… I struggled with this week’s color challenge a bit.  I started off with another outfit that ended up looking too much like mustard, so I scrapped it.  I was trying to stay away from lemon yellows and mustard yellows, so I experimented a bit and ended up with something a little gold-ish.  So yeah, I failed.  Big time.  Oh well.  I’m still determined to keep up with this weekly challenge, whether I fail or not.

52 Weeks of Color: #2 Blue

I find myself really loving this color challenge, and I’ve been looking forward to posting a new look all week.  Thanks for getting me back into blogging, Luna!  I know this look probably seems a bit casual, but I really, really love a good casual look.  Plus, it gave me a chance to blog my favorite jeans.  You just can’t do blue without jeans, can you?  Nuh uh.  I mean… you could, but why would you want to? =P

52 Weeks of Color: #1 Grey

Luna Jubilee proposed a 52 Weeks of Color Challenge, and I think this might be a good goal for me.  I have been a super lazy blogger because I spend so much time building and doing other things, so I am really going to try to stick to this.  The first week is grey, and I had plenty of grey in my inventory to get me started.

Hair Fair Faves: Mid-Length & Long Hairstyles

I’m back with my last installment of Hair Fair goodies.  I merged the mid-length and long hairstyles together for this post, because I didn’t find as many of each that I would wear on a regular basis.  It seems this year’s Hair Fair had a LOT of braids, ponies, piggies, and short hairstyles, but not so many mid-length and long hairstyles that I would wear.  So, here are my faves, and if you haven’t been to the Hair Fair yet, you better get on that because it closes in a few days!

Hair Fair Faves: Updos

I’m slowly, but surely, working on my five total installments of Hair Fair Faves, and I’m here with my 2nd installment filled with my favorite updos.  I hope you enjoy them!

Hair Fair Faves: Braids, Ponies & Piggies

There are tons of cute hairstyles at this year’s Hair Fair, so I thought I’d show you a few of favorites here.  I did quite a bit of hair fair coverage last year, and I thought classifying my posts by hairstyle type (like I did last year) would work out well.  So here are my favorite braids, ponies, and piggies from this year’s Hair Fair.  Enjoy!

These Strange Steps Take Us Back

I bought a few new releases this week, so I threw them together for a quick look.  I’m loving the summer goodies being released, and this adorable, yet simple, look is just what I need.  Since I’ve been building more and blogging less, I haven’t been changing clothes as often as I should.  I know, right?  Shame on me.  Hopefully this look is the beginning of a step back toward blogging more frequently.

Just a Little Touch of Fate

I started playing around with a few newer releases over the weekend, and this outfit was the end result.  I love the soft color palette and the fun, flirty ruffles.  This is a look that really makes me feel like girl, and that is quite alright with me.

Waiting in the Wings

I have been wanting to do something different with this dress for several weeks.  I already did a look using the top piece, but I wanted to figure out a way to use the skirt, and I finally found the perfect pieces to create an interesting look with this skirt.  Yay!
